Clean Water Fund Competitive Program Overview
The Clean Water Fund Competitive Program focuses on stormwater funding strategies and implementation of on-the-ground restoration activities to improve water quality. It prioritizes local resources, targets effectiveness, and measures impact. The program includes non-point priority funding plans, primary agency projects, and practices for achieving water quality goals. Grants support projects like Oak Glen Creek Stormwater Pond Expansion and Iron Enhanced Sand Filter Retrofit to reduce phosphorus and sediment. Urban stormwater initiatives have been awarded funds over the years. The program utilizes an interagency ranking approach and emphasizes prioritization, targeting, and water quality measurement for improvement.
